ABSTRACT:
A board game (FIG. 1) featuring an actual map of the world (5) with an outer border (7) in colors corresponding to the colors of specific regions designated on the world map (i.e. 11 and 26). Players (FIG. 3) move from region to region around the world by electing to go clockwise around the outer border or by choosing a transportation card (FIG. 2) which allows for movement into certain regions. Once in a region a player may purchase the business (FIG. 8) in that region or may accumulate world market currency (FIG. 5) by answering correctly a question (FIG. 4) specific to that region of the world. The winner is the player who owns all the businesses of the world or who acquires the most world market currency after a period of playing specified by the players at the beginning of the game.
